January 19 - Terrors III

[Drums in slow, followed by shakers]
Everywhere,
                    in every pore
Mosquitoes, flies, worms, larvae
Spiders, centipedes, ants, beatles
Pregnant all with pestilence
                                           and death
Writhing and screaming,
                                      I scratch and claw
Oh to rid myself of this plague!
A thousand tiny bugs
                                 burrowing
                                                 deeper
                                                           riddle my veins with your disease
Killing me, changing me
I grow weak and green, blue veins bursting out of my rotten flesh
I curl up,
            I die again, into sleep.
